Hotel El Amanecer  

In the mountains of Monteverde, a short stroll from Santa Elena’s center—less than 300 meters away. Minutes from Monteverde Orchid Garden, Mundo de los Insectos and Bat Jungle, and within easy driving distance of the Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve, Arenal and Lake Arenal.

A small, 15-room hotel that leans into warm, personalized service. Rooms feature memory-foam beds with down comforters and premium bedding, private bathrooms with complimentary toiletries and hair dryers, plus common terraces to take in the misty cloud-forest views.

Pamper yourself with onsite massages and a dedicated massage room, stretch in the yoga area, or relax on the terrace. Complimentary wireless internet, a TV in a common area, tour/ticket assistance and free self-parking round out the practical perks—wake up to crisp, cloud-forest mornings.

Useful services include luggage storage, a safe deposit box at the front desk and laundry facilities. Free self-parking is available onsite (note: laundry and parking are closed seasonally from August 1–31).

A complimentary full breakfast is served daily to start your day before heading out to the reserves and tours.
